The Foundation for the National Institutes of Health awarded a $100,000 grant to the Northeast District Department of Health (NDDH) to conduct The Heart Truth Community Action Program, a women’s heart health awareness and action campaign that warns women about heart disease and provides tools to help them take action against heart disease risk factors. NDDH was one of six communities nationwide to receive the grant award and the only one to receive full funding. The campaign will be conducted in partnership with the HealthQuest Northeast Connecticut coalition, a regional health and wellness collaborative working to improve the health of northeastern Connecticut residents.
